In summary, the conversation discussed potential candidates for the 2019 physics Nobel medal and focused on the recent loophole-free Bell tests. Lukas suggested Alain Aspect as a potential winner, while also mentioning the possibility of it being a collaborative effort. Alain then suggested Anton Zeilinger as another potential candidate for his work on the loophole-free Bell tests.

TL;DR Summary
some collection of ideas (including against official Nobel rules) for Nobel prize 2019
Hi folks,

in some previous years, I think it was a bit easier (e.g., gravitational waves), but what is your guess for this year: who will / who should win a physics Nobel medal 2019? I'm also more interested in the actual research than in the individuals, so if you don't want to pin it to a single name or if it is a collaboration, that's fine. Just a collection of your thoughts...

Best
Lukas

Good one, I like it. Maybe then also to some people for the recent loophole-free Bell tests? But there, I couldn't make a choice.

Anyways, other ideas?

To piggyback off that: Anton Zeilinger.
